Setting Up for Linux Desktops

Table 6‑1. Configuration Options in /etc/vmware/config (Continued)
Option Value/Format Default Description
RemoteDisplay.qpminH264 available range of
values: 0-51
10 Use this option to set the H264maxQP quantization
parameter, which specifies the lowest image quality for
the remote display configured to use H.264 encoding.
Set the value to less than the value set for
RemoteDisplay.qpmaxH264.
RemoteDisplay.minQualityJPEG available range of
values: 1-100
25 Specifies the image quality of the desktop display for
JPEG/PNG encoding. The low-quality settings are for
areas of the screen that change often, for example,
when scrolling occurs.
RemoteDisplay.midQualityJPEG available range of
values: 1-100
35 Specifies the image quality of the desktop display for
JPEG/PNG encoding. Use to set the medium-quality
settings of the desktop display.
RemoteDisplay.maxQualityJPEG available range of
values: 1-100
90 Specifies the image quality of the desktop display for
JPEG/PNG encoding. The high-quality settings are for
areas of the screen that are more static, resulting in a
better image quality.
Configuration Options in /etc/vmware/viewagent-custom.conf
Java Standalone Agent uses the configuration file /etc/vmware/viewagent-custom.conf.
Table 6‑2. Configuration Options in /etc/vmware/viewagent-custom.conf
Option Value Default Description
Subnet NULL or
network
address
and mask
in IP
addres
s/CIDR
format
NULL
If multiple local IP addresses have different subnets, use this
option to set the subnet that the Linux Agent provides to the
Connection Server instance.
When multiple subnet configurations are detected on a Linux
Agent machine, this option is required to specify the correct
subnet that should be used by the Linux Agent. For example,
if you installed Docker on the Linux machine, it will be
introduced as a virtual network adapter. To avoid Linux Agent
from using Docker as a virtual network adapter, you have to
set this option to use the real physical network adapter.
You must specify the value in IP address/CIDR format. For
example, Subnet=192.168.1.0/24.
NULL implies that the Linux Agent randomly selects the IP
address.
SSOEnable true or
false
true
Set this option to enable/disable single sign-on (SSO).
